WHEELBARGER A T Tom/5k Patented Apr. 12, I932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ALBERT S. WHEELBARGER, OF DAYTON, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO OHMER FAR-E REGISTER COMPANY, OF DAYTON, OHIO APPARATUS FOR INDICATING, RECORDING, AND REGISTERING FAR-ES OR OTHER RECEIPTS Application filed December 31, 1924. Serial No. 759,170.

This invention relates to registering mechanisms and more particularly to a fare register adapted to register fares of any amount from one cent up to the highest fare within the capacity of the machine.

One object of the invention is to provide a registering mechanism, which may be quickly and easily operated to register any fare within the capacity of the machine.

A. further object of the invention is to provide such a machine with totalizing mechanism which will automatically register the total values of all cash fares registered; and further to provide separately operated means for taking a record from said totalizing mechanism.

A further object of the invention is to provide such a machine with controlling devices and locks which will insure the correct operation of the several parts of the mechanism in their proper sequence.

Other objects of the invention will appear as the mechanism is described in detail.

In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a register embodying my invention with the pedestal partly broken away; Fig. 1A is a detail of the cabinet lock; Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the register; Fig. 3 is a rear elevation of the upper portion of the register showing the setting levers; Fig. at is a front elevation of the registering mechanism with the casing removed; Fig. 5 is a rear elevation of the registering mechanism with the casing removed, and partly broken away; Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the registering mechanism with tl e casing removed; Fig. 7 is an elevation of that side of the mechanism opposite that shown in Fig. 6; Fig. 7a is a detail view of the identifying key; Fig. 8 is a section taken on the line 88 of Fig. 5; Fig. 9 is a sec tion taken on the line 9-9 of Fig. 5; Fig. 10 is a section taken on the line 10-10 of Fig. 5; Fig. 11 is a detail of the transfer mechanism of the zone indicator and is taken on the line 1111 of Fig. 16; Fig. 12 is a section taken on the line 1212 of Fig. i; Fig. 18 is a section taken on the line 13-18 of Fig. 9; Fig. 14 is a section taken on the line 14-14 of Fig. 9; Fig. 15 is a section taken on the line 15-15 of Fig. 9; Fig. 16 is a section taken on the line 1616 of Fig. 9; Fig. 17 is a section taken on the line 1'717 of Fig. 9; Fig. 18 is a section taken on the line 18-18 of Fig. 9; Fig. 19 is a side elevation of the printing mechanism for both the detail record and the total record, partly broken away; Fig. 20 is a detail view of the inking mechanism of the printing mechanism of the total record; Fig. 21 is a detail view of the actuating bar and its associated parts; Fig. 22 is a detail view of the full stroke mechanism of the actuating bar; Fig. 23 is a facsimile of a portion of the detail record; 24 is a facsimile of a portion of the total record; F 25 is a section taken on the line 2525 of Fig. 26; Fig. 26 is a section taken on the line 26-26 of Fig. 25; Fig. 27 is a section taken on the line 2727 of Fig. 25; Fig. 28 is an elevation of a portion of the actuating mechanism for the total adder; Fig. 29 is a detail view of the actuating cam for the lock for the selecting device for the total adder; Fig. 30 is a section taken on the line 3030 of Fig. 25 Fig. 31 is a detail view of one of the pinions of the selecting device for the total adder; Fig. 32 is a section taken on the line 32-32 of Fig. 26; Fig. 33 is a section taken on the line 3333 of Fig. 26; Fig. 34 is a section taken on the line 34-434 of Fig. 26; F ig. 35 is a section taken on the line 3535 of Fig. 26; Fig. 36 is a section taken on the line 3636 of Fig. 26; Fig. 37 is a detail view of the locking pawl of the total adder actuating mechanism; Fig. 38 is a front elevation showing a slight modification of the fare indicating devices; and Fig. 39 is a section taken on the line 3939 of Fig. 88.

In these drawings I have illustrated one embodiment of my invention andhave shown the same as embodied in a fare register designed primarily for use on interurban cars, city cars which operate on a Zone basis and other passenger vehicles in which the fare collected is based upon the distance traveled and in which the fare is not necessarily a multiple of five or ten thus requiring that the registering mechanism be of such a character as to register in unit multiples.
